"Do you know, last month I asked him when Napoleon had died, he didn't know!”“Please, sir, give him another chance,”said Jack’s father. “You see, I‘m afraid we don’t take any newspaper in our house, so none of us even know that Napoleon was ill.” 拿破仑病了 杰克到一所大学去学历史。第一学期结束时,历史课教授没让他及格。学校让他退学。然而,杰克的父亲决定去见教授,强烈要求让杰克继续来年的学业。 “他是个好孩子,”杰克的父亲说:“您要是让他这次及格,我相信他明年会有很大进步,学期结束时,他一定会考好的。” “不,不,那不可能,”教授马上回答。“你知道吗?上个月我问他拿破仑什么时候死的,他都不知道。” “先生,请再给他一次机会吧。”杰克的父亲说:“你不知道,恐怕是因为我们家没有订报纸。我们家的人连拿破仑病了都不知道。”

As people were afraid of him, they all said his stories were good。 从前有一个国王,他喜欢写故事,但是他写的故事很不好。人们怕他,都说他的故事好。 One day the king showed his stories to a famous writer.

The king got very angry with him and sent him to prison。 有一天国王把他的故事给一名作家看,他想要作家赞扬他的这些故事,而作家说他的故事是如此的差以至于该扔进火里。国王很生气,把他送到监狱。 After some time, the king set him free.

Tom's mother told him, "Do not go outside without your warm coat, Tom. It is very cold and there is a lot of snow on the ground. If you go without your coat, you will catch cold, and you will be sick."汤姆的妈妈告诉他:“穿上你的外套再去外面,汤姆!外面非常冷而且地面积了好多雪。如果你不穿外套的话,会感冒的,生病就不好了。”"But I feel quite warm," said Tom.“但是我觉得挺暖和的。”汤姆说。"Yes, you do now," said his mother. "That's because there is a big fire in here. Outside there is no fire, and the cold wind blows. If you have no warm coat on, you will feel cold."“是的,你现在觉得暖和。”妈妈说:“那是因为家里有大壁炉。外面可没有火给你烤,而且还有冷风吹。如果你不穿上暖和的外套,你一定会冷的。”However, Tom thought he knew best, so he went outside with no coat, and he caught a bad cold and cough.

Look at the Sky仰望天空Sometimes,on a nice day,my friend and I like to lie on the grass and look up at the sky.有时,天气晴朗的时候,我和我的朋友喜欢躺在草地上仰望天空。We can see birds and airplanes and clouds.我们可以看到鸟、飞机和云。Some clouds are soft and fluffy.有些云又软又蓬松。Some are thin and wispy.有些云稀疏纤薄。Some clouds float away on the wind.有些云随风飘散。Some clouds grow bigger when we watch them.有些云我们看着它们慢慢变大。We think we can see big ships and whales.我们认为我们可以看到大船和鲸鱼。Then we close our eyes.然后我们闭上眼睛。When we open our eyes we see kittens and puppies.当我们睁开眼睛时,我们看到了小猫和小狗。We watch the kittens and puppies run away.我们看着小猫和小狗跑远。Looking at clouds is a lot of fun!观云很有意思!Word Listgrass:a small,green plant that people often grow in their yard 草地fluffy:very soft 松软的wispy:very thin 纤薄的float:to move slowly and lightly in the air飘荡
It was the day before a Christmas. Two poor little children were out in the woods. They wanted to find a Christmas tree. Poor children, they had never had a Christmas tree. "Oh, Dear me!" said the little girl, "We have nothing to put on the tree."The boy said, "Maybe we can find a tree with cones on it. Cones make a tree very pretty." The poor children looked and looked, but they had never found trees with cones on them. At last, night came. It was dark in the big woods. And the children couldn't find their way home. "We are lost." said the little boy, "Let us sit here under the tree and wait until morning." There were very very tired and before long the little girl fell asleep. "I must not go to sleep." said the boy, "I must take care of sister." He sat there a long long time. All at once, he saw light. It grew bigger and bigger. "Look! Look! Little sister!" He cried, "See the beautiful light." Just as the little girl woke up, the children saw a beautiful fairy in the light. They had never seen a fairy before and were frightened. The fairy said, "Don't be frightened. I am the Christmas Fairy. At night before Christmas, I am always in the woods. I take care of the children who come here and find the best Christmas tree for them. Come with me! " said the fairy, "And we will find the Christmas tree." She took them to a beautiful tree that had many many cones on it. Then the fairy said, "Little cones, light the tree!" And all at once, each cone was shining like the sun. "What a beautiful Christmas tree!" said the children. "This is your tree. Take it with you, and it will give you light all the way home.""Thank you very much, dear fairy." said the happy children.Then they took the beautiful tree and soon found the way home. They put the tree in the window and all the people saw the cones shining on Christmas day.
